American Thinker: From Tea Parties to Political Parties
About Politicians:
There are some fundamental misunderstandings people have about politicians. Let me clear those up:
(1) Politicians are not smart. Most of them have average IQs -- if they are lucky.
(2) Politicians are extraordinarily egocentric. They run for office because they love to see their face on the TV and they love to hear themselves talk. (President Obama is example #1 of this principle.)
(3) At the national level, politicians are (1) + (2) and they either have a lot of personal wealth -- or they have worked their way up the system (running for local office first) by selling their souls to lobbyists on either the left or the right
